Captain Michael Blackburn has resigned as Chairman of the Leeward Islands Pilots Association (LIALPA) as he prepares to file a lawsuit against regional carrier LIAT challenging his summary dismissal earlier this month.
Captain Blackburn said his resignation Thursday would prevent possible conflict of interest since he may have to call on association members to aid his defense.

All you don’t know whats going on and all you saying good. Don’t you realise that no Airline wants to fly to Dominica? This is because of all you stinking repute especially in the region of being loud mouths at all Aiports yet still, LIAT continues to provide services to you.So therefore be grateful because the old broom knows all the corners and itstill sweeps good.
Is true, Domnicans are ver loud at these Airports, they don’t know how airlne busness is but they running their mouth. Showmenebusiness in minica hat i better than LIAT and can take the stress we give the agents at the counter.
